What will you spend/have you spent - Fri 26/5/06

Morning

Today is Farmers Market day for me - it's also pay day but that doesn't have much of an impact apart from shifting money about :cool: - hopefully.

For the first time in an age I've got a glimmer of desire to look at clothes though...

Edit: I did look at clothes, I found lots I liked which was frustrating because I didn't have time to try them on... so I walked away and later found that I didn't mind at all

I spent £2.50 on parking - I am extravagant on market day, it's a sort of treat to park right alongside in the expensive bit and I tend to always be very organised and use my time well to make up for it.

£21.05 at the market, which included a really tasty looking joint, but I was a bit sad to realise my calculations that took me down to 26p had missed off the mushroom man - so no mushrooms for me because I didn't want to take further money out.

£31.ish in Tesco, a fairly major stock up as we were eating up real odds and ends yesterday.

And on the plus side - I got sent £10 in vouchers today tucked in a Thank You card which was a lovely surprise

Oh and £38 on the lottery (not my money)

Have to pop to the shops today for weekly shop so that will be about £10.

Going over to a friends tonight for girls night in so only cost there will be a bottle of wine.

Not sure about the bank hol weekend though, will have to try very hard and not think - well I've just been paid so it doesnt matter. Fell into that thinking last bank hol and cost me a fortune!

Especially when the car went and broke down!

Hi guys - first time I've posted on these threads - but today its been£10 for petrol - the fumes were nearly run out and the lights been on all week! £4.50 tonite for the gym to keep OH company while she trains for the local Run for Life next week. Please God it doesn't rain then - nothing worse than soggy runners.
Nothing else planned.

Zero spend hopefully. Giving free treatments to friends tonight so they'll supply the wine and nibbles. I must not spend. I must not spend.

Agggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! The coffee / tea man has just called at the house. I've just spent £13.00 though six of that is for my mum. It wasn't lack of will power I just forgot I'm not to spend any money! I'm going to make a note to put on the door to tell me I'm allowed to buy NOTHING!!!!

I wouldn't mind, but I don't drink tea or coffee, it was a treat for my hubby! Stomps of grumpily!

I'm aiming to be as frugal as possible especially as today is my first day of unemployment (sob, sob).

I'm off into town to post some letters (freepost) and call at the library to look through the local papers for jobs (cheaper than buying them).

I do need to buy some bread & veg but there's a Netto and the market en route so I plan to spend under a fiver.

Here's the damage for today:

£1.10 - 15 eggs from local butchers
£1.39 Vienetta (With 50% extra free:D )(DS girlfriend coming for tea tonight!)
49p broccoli from market
5 packets of assorted biscuits for £1 from local market. (MUCH cheaper than supermarket so a bargain not to be missed!)

= £3.98 ...could have been a lot worse:rotfl:
